Introducing MySpaShop.com, http://www.myspashop.com – The Spa Lifestyle at Your Fingertips

Do You Know Your Dosha?
November 18, 2008 11:40 AM Eastern Time

RUTLAND, Vt. and NEW YORK--(EON: Enhanced Online News)--At the end of the first decade of the 21st century, life’s curves seem more stressful and beyond individual control. While we can’t do much about macro-economic forces, we can control self-care and rejuvenation - and finding physical and emotional balance – essential to coping with stress and improving health.

Almond Butter - yumito!

2009-12-17T05:35:00.000-05:00

A healthy alternative to peanut butter is almond butter. It has six times the calcium, three times the amount of
Vitamin E and twice the iron of peanut butter.

And this is a really delicious brand. Actually, I think I need to go eat some of it now...

How to cut a Pomegranate - (and delicious juice recipe!)

2009-10-09T04:55:00.001-05:00

It's pomegranate season, and if you've never had one...now is the time!

Pomegranate's are native to the Middle Eastern areas and are in season in North America from September to November.

If you've never had one before, you are going to be surprised. They are very different than any fruit you've probably ever had.

How to Cut a Pomegranate

Step 1: Cut the Top and Bottom

First thing you want to do, is cut a small slice off the top and the bottom of the pom (as they are often called from those that love them.) The reason you want to do this, is because it will be easier to stand up and cut the rest of it.

Step 2: Cut it Into Quarters

Yo! That's some funky looking fruit!

The seeds, known as arils, are what is eaten from this juicy fruit.

(Great to toss into salads btw...)

Step 3: Separate the Arils from the Pulp

Now here's the tricky part. You want to get a bowl and fill it up about halfway or a quarter with water. Now you are going to pull out all the seeds from the surrounding pulp.

If you don't do it in a bowl of water, you are going to stain anything thing that the juice touches.

Step 4: Scoop out the Seeds!

The other reason we do it in a bowl of water, is because the seeds will sink and the pulp will float.

Now you can just scoop out the pulp and strain the water to get the yummy seeds!

Step 5: Eat 'em Straight Up or Juice 'em!

You can eat the arils by themselves, throw them in a salad, or juice them...

If you eat them alone, you are going to get a lot of seed. That's why a lot of people like to juice them.

When you do juice them, combine it with something like apple. Pure pomegranate juice is good, but really intense. Intense in a good way, but it's nice to mix it up... Also one pomegranate can make a very small amount of juice. Mixing it with another fruit extends the flavor out further.

Here's a raw juice recipe from the folks at Raw Food, Right Now (a raw food blog), that highlights the full flavor of the pomegranate and the delicate sweet flavors of ripe juicy apples!

Pomegranate Apple Juice
by Heidi Ohlander

Serves 2

Ingredients:
Seeds from 1 Pomegranate
2 red apples (Cortland, Honeycrisp, etc.)

Directions: In a juicer, juice the seeds from the pomegranate as well as juice the apples. When you are finished juicing, stir the juice to combine the flavors. Pour into glasses.

Enjoy this healthy drink!

Easy Home-baked Bread

What's better than Home-baked bread?

Here's a recipe from MeiMei Fox, a fantastic Well-Being Coach in San Francisco, whom I've had the great pleasure of connecting with on Twitter.

Easy and delicious home-baked bread - now that's an idea I can sink my teeth into!

Thanks MeiMei.

xo

elizabeth

Here's her recipe:

This recipe is healthy and incredibly easy to prepare. The best part of all is that you can store the dough in your fridge for up to 3 weeks, just pulling off as much as you need at a time so that you can have fresh-baked bread at any meal with very little effort!

Modified from Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day, by Jeff Hertzberg and Zoe Francois

Ingredients:
1 1/2 tablespoons yeast (about 1 1/2 packets)
1 1/2 tablespoons kosher salt
6 1/2 cups whole wheat flour

Preparation:
In a large plastic resealable container, mix yeast and salt into 3 cups lukewarm water. Using a large spoon, stir in flour, mixing until dough is uniformly moist. Do not knead. Cover, but not with an airtight lid. Let dough rise at room temperature for 2 to 5 hours. Cover securely with plastic lid and store in fridge overnight before baking first loaf.

When you’re ready to bake some, tear off as much as you like and put the rest back in the refrigerator. Work dough for a minute, adding flour to prevent sticking as needed. Shape into a ball and place on sheet of parchment. Let rest uncovered for 40 minutes.

Preheat over to 450 degrees. Place a Dutch oven or casserole dish in the oven so that it is also preheated. Place dough on parchment paper into heated container. Cover and bake 30 minutes. Uncover and bake another 30 minutes.

Don’t burn your fingers ripping off a hot bite as soon as your tasty bread comes out of the oven!

Sixteen tips for getting your Mac or iPhone fixed:

Sixteen tips for getting your Mac or iPhone fixed:

- by Seth Godin

The contact number is (800) 275 2273

While you're on hold, go to Google and type: Troubleshoot Mac xxx, where xxx represents the error message you got or the sparsest description of what won't work.

If those links don't help you, visit the Apple site and choose your product. Under each product is a discussion forum. Search for your problem.

By now, someone has answered your call. Don't tell them your entire problem. Instead, politely identify yourself, give them the short version and then say, "would you please escalate this call to a yyy specialist?" where yyy is the type of problem you have: wireless or backup or imovie or whatever. Persist.

When you get a specialist on the line, ask politely for her direct phone number in case you get disconnected. After you describe your problem, ask for a case number. If the person isn't being helpful, politely excuse yourself and start over with a new call.

Apple gets lots and lots of calls. As a result, don't expect the person you're working with to immediately be willing to skip over all the troubleshooting steps you tried before you called. They have a protocol. It's easier to just take five minutes to follow that protocol.

If the specialist you're working with is having trouble figuring out what to do next, politely say, "I hope you don't mind, but can you escalate this case to a specialist?" And then wait, patiently, until they do.

If your product is less than thirty days old, and you've gone through the protocol with no success, say, "I'd like an RMA for this product so I can return it and start with one that works. It's under the return warranty, right?"

If you found lots of examples of the same problem in Google, tell them. Point out that this "is not an isolated problem" and suggest that others have solved it by getting a new machine sent to them. Be ready with links, because the rep has Google too.

Engaging in friendly banter doesn't just help you get what you want. It makes the call better for you too. These guys aren't your enemy. In fact, right now, they're the best friend you have in the whole world.

This is the one I should have listed first: go to the Genius bar at your local store. The guys at the Genius bar are much more likely to just swap out your broken hardware and give you a new machine. It might seem time-consuming, but it's probably faster than waiting them out on the phone. Spending $99 on a One to One card is a brilliant investment.

At least once a minute, say 'thank you.' If you thought about it, you'd realize that yes, you do mean it. They're being quiet and calm and trying to help.

If you own a computer, back it up. If you don't, all bad things are your fault.

I have no personal experience in begging or sobbing, but I'm told that in some cases, this is effective.

If you use an email program, clean it out. Regularly. One friend of mine had 27,000 emails in her outbound mail folder, including some from 2002.

Trust me, it doesn't matter how big the readership of your blog is, the folks on the phone are unlikely to care.

Garden Is a Seedbed for Green Cosmetics - NY Times Article on Hauschka Products

2008-10-22T06:13:00.002-05:00

ECKWÄLDEN, Germany — You know you are not in an ordinary garden when a man in dirt-covered trousers, tending witch-hazel plants, describes his work in words that could come from Nietzsche.

Dr. Hauschka products are made by WALA Heilmittel at its headquarters and have sales of nearly $150 million.

“It demands a higher level of consciousness and a force of will to garden at this level,” said Joscha Huter, 40, who cultivates the plants and flowers used to make the popular, expensive line of German natural cosmetics, Dr. Hauschka. “There’s a point where gardening becomes an art.”

There’s also a point where it becomes a crackerjack business: this rarefied garden in a southern German valley is the seedbed for an environmental marketing phenomenon that has captivated Hollywood.

Laughter is the best medicine

2008-10-21T11:10:00.000-05:00

Laughter is an important key to health. Laughter can
alter your internal chemistry from negative to positive,
releases tension, shifts your perception so you can center
yourself and makes life more enjoyable. Consider watching
a good comedy instead of the news before bedtime and notice
how much better you sleep.

Acai (pronounced ah-sigh-ee) - my new favorite fruit

2008-10-07T10:40:00.005-05:00

Discover the Açai

Scientifically Proven Benefits

The remarkable health benefits of açai have been validated by modern science. Based on USDA data, the açai berry's total ORAC (antioxidant) activity is 200%-750% more than any other fruit or vegetable tested.

If you want to try the best Acai product on the market - this is where to get it!

click here:

MonaVie - enjoy!

For centuries, the people of the Amazon have revered the açai berry (pronounced "ah-sigh-ee") for its unique nutritional properties. Their tribal healers used açai to promote health and longevity, and their warriors consumed it as a source of strength, energy and vitality.

The açai is a fruit from the Açai Palm and is found mostly in the Amazon floodplains and uplands. The palm has a thick trunk, sometimes slightly curved, which averages 15-20 meters tall. The ripe açai berry is black-violet in color and is approximately 12-15 mm in diameter and has a berry and chocolate-like flavor.

Because of its unparalleled antioxidant levels and superior nutrient content, açai is now widely regarded as one of the world's most healthful and nutrient-dense fruits. Here are a few of the nutrients found in açai:

* Antioxidants
* Vitamins and Minerals
* Phytonutrients
* Complex Carbohydrates
* Essential Fatty Acids
* Dietary Fiber
* Amino Acids

New York City Marathon - helpful tips

2008-09-27T18:07:00.000-05:00

NYC Marathon Race Day Tips
A few essentials will make marathon day a lot easier and more fun:

Enjoy

xo elizabeth

p.s. And for all of you amazing folks running in this years Marathon - congratulations on being a rock star!

Spectator Spots: If people are going to be cheering for you along the race course, here's how to make sure you see each other:

Decide the location or locations a few days before, and make sure they know what wave start you are in.

Be VERY specific: Not just "At 72nd St" but "On the northeast corner of 1st & 72nd". Know what side of the street to be on - Runner's Left or Runner's Right.

Runners will see spectators before spectators see runners. Know what your spectators are wearing, and make sure your spectators know what you're wearing.

Name on your shirt: Find some way to put your name on the front of your shirt. There is NOTHING better than having people you don't now yelling your name from the sides of the road, and nothing worse than being anonymous to two million fans screaming out everyone else's name. Magic Marker works best. Duct tape and other tape will fall off once you get sweaty, so if you use that method pin or sew the tape to your shirt as a backup. If you use iron-on letters, test a small area of your shirt first - you don't want to melt your shirt's technical fabric.

Know how you're getting to the start: NYRRC is trying to prevent the pre-race traffic jams and is closely coordinating pre-race transportation. Don't wait until the last minute to figure it out.

Set your Clock Back: Daylight savings time ends on Saturday night Nov 1st, so you get an extra hour on Sunday morning Nov 2nd! Don't wake up earlier than you have to!

Race morning clothing: You will be on Staten Island for several hours before the start. Wear cheap, disposable clothing over your marathon outfit to the race start to keep warm, and bring something to read to distract you from your nerves. Once you line up or just after you start, ditch your extra clothing on the bridge. NYRR collects all that clothing for the homeless. JackRabbit has inexpensive disposable Tyvek suits that are wind and waterproof - only $10 and you'll be toasty.

Nutrition: Make sure you have energy gels that you've tried during one of your training runs. Everybody is different, but as a general rule of thumb figure two gels or 250 calories per hour. If you're going to sweat a lot, you might want to supplement further with electrolyte tablets. Avoid solid foods for at least an hour before race start, and take your first gel 10-15 minutes before race start. Always take gels and tablets with water! Don't forget to gently hydrate before the start, especially if we have unseasonably warm weather - you should not be thirsty when the gun goes off.

Hat & Sunglasses: Whether it's sunny or raining, a hat will ease the tension in your face, making the run more comfortable. If you've been training in the parks, remember it's a lot less shady on the marathon course.

Post Race Bag: After the finish, you'll have up to a mile to walk to get to your bag and exit the park. Keep moving, don't stop if you can help it. Put a very comfortable pair of shoes into your post-race bag, along with some easy to digest but substantial food like a Clif bar or banana, along with a drink or maybe a little treat you can look forward to. You'll want a change of shirt, and if it's chilly or drizzly a pair of pants. Put your cellphone in your post-race bag, but realize that you'll have a tough time getting a signal near the finish line.

Rendezvous Points: If you're meeting folks after the race, pick a spot near where you're supposed to exit the park, but avoid meeting on Central Park West. It's a mob scene. Try meeting a little west of the avenue on one of the side streets.

Green Tea is Sexy

2008-09-22T00:50:00.011-05:00

In case you didn’t know, a massive number of scientific studies have confirmed that green tea is one of the healthiest things you can drink for your heart.

The evidence is so overwhelming, Japanese researchers concluded -

"The more green tea patients consume, the less likely they are to have coronary artery disease."

For a great scientific article about the health benefits of green tea, just click here.

Here's some hot tips about green tea, from my good friend Christian Grattan, a lifestyle blogger and an amazing photographer. ChristianGrattan.com

Christian fell in love with the Japanese green tea, Genmai Cha

Christian writes -

"It is called Genmai Cha. It is warm, light, and nutty in flavor. It is made from green tea leaves, toasted and popped brown rice and sometimes matcha (another green tea in powdered form.)

I get it from www.japanesegreenteaonline.com. They blend it with matcha and it adds something to it."

Tricks for brewing -

* Let the water cool for 4-5 minutes. The water needs to be hot, but not boiling. Letting it cool for a few minutes does the trick.

* Brew the tea for 1-4 minutes. Leaving it in longer will make it bitter. I brew a bunch and then put it in a thermos

"That's all it takes. When you read about the beneficial effects on the Japanese they talk about how people drink like 5 cups a day. It seems like a lot, but when made properly it is really nice to drink."

Quantum Physics in 6 minutes or less

2008-04-30T09:09:00.009-05:00

While this video is about Quantum Physics - it has everything to do with health and well-being.

The "Observer Effect" - it's been scientifically proven, on the quantum level, the act of observation - changes what you are looking at. This is big stuff and it has everything to do with the Paradigm shift needed in health care today.

I recently attended a workshop - taught by Richard Bartlett, Author, D.C., N.D, the guy is fascinating. (He is not featured in this video) He helped me better understand my views on what needs to change in our current health care system, and it's elegant - a simple shift in focus.

In a nutshell, medical practice is predicated on the treatment of DISEASE not WELLNESS care. While this may seem like a subtle distinction - it is huge in it's implications. Your Doctor is trained to see you as a list of symptoms and potential problems. What you focus on expands. Despite good intentions - most forms of treatment and therapy reinforce the problem mind-set. The time to transform that is now.

Donna Karen Urban Zen and her Well-Being Forum

2008-01-07T16:19:00.004-05:00

Donna Karen's experience when her husband was dealing with Cancer inspired her to start the Urban Zen - Well-Being forum. My own journey with my mother's battle with Cancer has taught me many things about health and the importance of wellness. Initiatives like Donna Karen's are a step in the right direction for health care. - elizabeth mcgann

Donna writes -

Imagine if Eastern philosophy harmonized with Western medical practice,
if the cure for disease was born out of human touch...

Whenever you bring opposites together, something beautiful happens,
you find each inspires and transforms elements of the other.

When my husband Stephan was sick, so much was missing from his care.
He needed the powerful science of Western traditional medicine,
but he also needed the healing that can only be accessed
from the heart and spirit. Out of my frustration by the treatment
at even the best medical facilities, a commitment was born.
I am determined to do what I can to help create a new model
for approaching wellness and patient care.

My mission is to create a working environment
where the worlds of conventional and alternative medical practices
unite to invent new ways of healing, health and well-being for all of us.
We must treat the patient with the same passion with which we fight the disease.
